Chapter 6 Iced Grapes

The woman looked at Lan Tian with confusion and thought to herself, why can't she get up if she is more than ten feet high?

"The only grapes on the rack are ripe with black purple on the top, but the weather is too hot now I can't climb up, and the rest are not fully ripe yet..." Lan Tian explained.

"Are you still a man?" The woman said that, she jumped, stepped on the grape trellis and picked a few grapes in the air.

This series of movements was smooth and smooth, Lan Tian was stunned and thought to himself that this was the so-called kung fu?

"Why is this grape so huge? It's different from what I've eaten before." The woman said to herself.

Lantian stood aside and smiled without saying a word. This grape was improved by itself. It is probably the only one in the entire Three Kingdoms. In terms of taste and size, it is the best in the Three Kingdoms.

The woman threw the grapes into her mouth and chewed them. She felt the juice splashing in her mouth. The grapes with a little fruity acid tasted particularly thirst.

"General Gao, you can try it too. This grape is very delicious. I didn't eat it in Chang'an before."

"Miss, let's go back soon, so as not to worry General Lu if he is too late." The burly man did not eat, but kindly reminded.

"Okay, can I pick a few more for my father to taste?" the woman asked Lantian.

"Please." Lan Tian stretched out his right hand and said magnanimously. He had no choice but to agree, because the burly man was obviously a general, and if he robbed him, he would have to be beaten.

The woman jumped out again, picked a bunch of grapes directly, and then wrapped the leaves.

Before leaving, the woman looked back and smiled, like camellia standing in the wind.

"If you don't eat your grapes in vain, I will bring some cooked meat to thank you another day."

Lantian didn't like to eat fruits very much in later generations, but he only had a special liking for juicy grapes, especially after being treated with ice and cooling, which made it particularly cool in summer.

The sun is full of sunshine in midsummer, and after a few days, the grapes are all ripe. Lantian set up a ladder to pick the ripe ones on the top. After filling a small bucket, he cleaned it first, and then put the small wooden bucket into the well behind the house with a hemp rope.

After becoming the owner of Ganjiazhuang, Lantian used the small power in his hand to ask the villagers to dig a well for themselves so that they would not have to run too far to fetch water.

When the girl surnamed Lu came back alone, Lantian normally pulled the bucket up the well.

"You are a big man, you can't even carry a bucket of water?" The girl said with some contempt when she saw Lan Tian's legs trembling.

"It's you? After eating my grapes, why don't you come and help me?" Lan Tian glanced at the side and found that it was the girl who knew martial arts a few days ago.

When Miss Lu heard this, she stepped forward, grabbed Lantian's hands and lifted the hemp rope up, and the small wooden barrel filled with grapes was lifted up directly.

The small wooden barrel plus grapes is only more than twenty kilograms, but putting it in the well increases the resistance to water.

However, this girl named Lu is indeed a martial arts master. She can probably work as a steel bar worker if she is in later generations. Her expression is not only relaxed but even disdainful.

"What are you doing?" Miss Lu was puzzled when she saw this guy putting the grapes into the well to wash them.

"You can try it first." Lantian picked a black purple grape and handed it over.

Miss Lu threw the grapes into her mouth and instantly showed a look of surprise, "What were you doing just now? Why is this grape so refreshing today?"

"I put it in the well water and iced, so it smells like this."

"Ice? It tastes great. Why haven't I seen this way to eat it before?"

Lan Tian smiled and said, "That's because he didn't meet me."

"I have no power to tie a chicken, but I'm still smooth-mouthed. I'll give it to you." After the girl said that, she handed over a wooden food box.

Lantian opened it and saw a plate of cut cooked meat inside. The guy grabbed it and swallowed it voraciously.

"Hey, have you never eaten meat? No one snatched it from you."

"Look at the sun is so big, and the meat will smell bad after a while. Am I afraid of wasting it?" Lan Tian said with a mouth full of oil.

"Oh, that's it..." The girl suddenly realized.

"By the way, what's your name?" Seeing Lantian concentrate on eating meat, the girl asked again.

"Lantian, Lanziyu."

"Lan Ziyu, can you sell this barrel of grapes to me?" the girl asked.

"Sell? I have some on that one, so I can give it to you." Lan Tian said with a smile.

Since Gan Qian went to Xia Pi, Lantian usually has no one to talk. Now that he has finally met a girl who is pleasing to the eye, he naturally has to pretend to be generous.

"Okay? I don't think you are short of food and clothing, and do you have anything special to do? I'll find someone to repay you."

"Special? If there is any good book script, you can send me some..." Lan Tian thought about it, but the world in the book was more interesting.

The girl nodded and agreed, thinking that this guy turned out to be a scholar, no wonder he didn't have any strength at all.

"Lan Ziyu, I'll leave first, my name is Lu Lingqi." The girl lifted the small wooden barrel with one hand, and the gratitude was released from her eyes.

Lu Lingqi? Is this name a bit familiar?

Lan Tian thought for a while, and the last one was shocked, could it be the daughter of Lu Bu?

Lu Lingqi returned to Xiaopei City with a bucket of grapes. She first took two bunches for her mother Yan, and then gave them to her father Lu Bu.

"It's another grape? You can try it on the official station. These grapes are sweet, juicy and refreshing." At this time, Lu Bu was discussing the shortage of military rations with him.

"This grape is full and big, this is the first time I have seen it. It seems to be very different and it is still frozen in the mouth." Chen Gong asked after tasting a piece of cake.

"Yes, Mr. Gongtai, this was picked from a young man in Chengnan Village. He used the method of ice in the well and also taught me by the boy." Lu Lingqi said with a smile.

"How to cool in the well? This farmer's boy has a very good idea." Chen Gong suddenly realized.

"Father, do you have books there? It's better to be more advanced and good books." Lu Lingqi asked.

"Shu? When did you read books when my father read? Don't you like to arch and horse riding? Now you are going to read books?" Lu Bu asked in confusion.

"No, this grape was given to that young man. I think he is not short of food and clothing, so I thought about taking some book to repay others' favors." Lu Lingqi explained.

"I would like to thank a farmer who can read a good book? Just go find your mother to get some cooked meat to repay favors." Lu Bu said impatiently.

"Oh, I've already taken the cooked meat today. I'm afraid it's going to smell if I send it to you in the summer." Lu Lingqi complained.

At this time, Chen Gong laughed and said, "Miss, this is reasonable. If the flesh is released for a long time, it will smell bad. The soldiers will have no combat power after a long time of leisure."

"Mr. Gongtai, my father doesn't study. Do you have any books there?" Lu Lingqi asked again.

"I have a set of "Wei Liaozi" in my room. Can your farmer friend understand it?" Chen Gong said with a smile.

"What kind of book does he care about? As long as you have it, I will go to your side to pick it up later."

Chen Gong was originally a joke, but he didn't expect Lu Lingqi to take it seriously. He had already memorized the set of "Yu Liaozi" and didn't need to take it out and read it at any time. It just seemed that it was buried in the farmhouse.

After Lu Lingqi delivered the grapes, Gao Shun came in to report on the integration of the troops. After being defeated by Cao Cao, Lu Bu was left with only a few thousand people.

"Boping, didn't I ask you to look at Dian Lingqi? This girl went to pick other people's grapes again today. What if she meets a bad person?" Lu Bu rebuked.

Gao Shun smiled silently and said, "Miss's martial arts is mastered by the lord. It is a blessing that she does not bully others. I think that the farmer boy is powerless, so how could he let the lady suffer? The morale in the camp these days is a bit sluggish, and I am busy training."

"If that's the case, it's still important to train troops now. A real man is born in the world, how can he live in depression for a long time?" Lu Bu picked up a grape and squeezed it gently, and the grape exploded instantly.
